Skagit County, WA – Notices of assessed value change will be mailed later this month to notify property owners of their 2016 assessment for taxes payable in 2017. Notices are mailed only if the assessed value changed from the prior year. The 2016 valuations have an effective date of value of January 1, 2016. To determine valuation updates, real estate market activity is researched using valid sales occurring between May 1, 2015 and April 30, 2016.
Owners who have questions about the updated value are encouraged contact the Assessors office at 360 416-1780 or via email at assessor@co.skagit.wa.us to learn information on how their value was determined.
Those who wish to dispute the new value may submit an appeal to the Board of Equalization by the October 31 deadline.
Property owners that did not receive a value change notice will have the same assessment as in 2015 and may also appeal by October 31 if they disagree with the assessed value carried over.
